"What's going on?" That noon, Jin He had just stepped into the cafeteria when he saw staff carrying huge boxes and placing yogurt on the tables. He was a little confused. "Is this your sponsor? Wait a minute, the show has been filming for so long, isn't it a bit too late to change sponsors now?"

"Ah, it's a new investor in the production team. Luckily, the show has only just started filming, otherwise it would have been too late if it had been any later."

"Oh." Jin He felt strange, but didn't say anything, and pulled Fang Xiaoke to get food.

"I originally thought the milk sponsored by the program was awful." Fang Xiaoke seemed quite happy and hurriedly handed one to Jin He and placed it in his palm. "I bought this brand of yogurt before, and it's so delicious. Brother Xiao He, you should try it. You haven't eaten much yet."

Jin He unscrewed the cap; the yogurt was rich and creamy, the brand he usually drank.

It tastes good.

Jin He took another sip, and only when Fang Xiaoke urged him to eat did he tighten the lid, look at the plate with a pained expression, and pick up a piece of steamed bun and stuff it into his mouth.

It doesn't taste good.

At 1 p.m., the trainees, having finished their meal, all arrived at the recording hall. Jin He was still holding the bottle of yogurt he hadn't finished drinking. This made his meal much more comfortable. When he was dizzy from hunger, people were talking, and he couldn't very well take out something to eat in front of the camera. Now that he had a sponsor, he could take it out and have a sip whenever he wanted. He had half a bottle of yogurt left, so he could take it with him wherever he went.

"I want to be on your team, I want to be on your team..." Fang Xiaoke murmured beside Jin He, pleading, "Brother Xiao He, please be on my team~"

"You're ranked so high, shouldn't you be choosing the team members?" Jin He asked. "You could have just picked me."

“But Wen Lian also wants to be in your group.” Fang Xiaoke leaned closer to Jin He and whispered, “The production team definitely won’t put us in the same group, so you’ll either be in my group or Wen Lian’s group. Look, he’s been secretly glancing this way several times while we’re whispering to each other.”

Jin He: "..."

"You can join either group."

"Come join my group, me, Ji Feng, Zhang Huahua. You can even teach me about facial expression management, I really don't know how to manage facial expressions, Xiao He Ge~"

Fang Xiaoke clung to Jin He's arm, acting spoiled and coquettish. Jin He was speechless. Are all eighteen-year-olds this affectionate? He probably wasn't like this when he was eighteen.

Wen Lian suddenly appeared out of nowhere, pushed Fang Xiaoke's hand away, separated the two of them, and stood there with an air of righteous indignation.

"No matter what, I was the one who was chosen, and I don't get to decide where I go." Jin He patted Fang Xiaoke's arm. "Let's leave it to fate, but since we're in this show, we'll have to work together sooner or later."

After speaking, he looked at Wen Lian again, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You too."

Anyway, there are more than ninety people to be divided into ten groups, so he doesn't necessarily have to be in the group with just the two of them.

As the children whispered among themselves, An Yi and Fang Canyang walked in side by side. An Yi was wearing a black deep V-neck shirt today, the shape of his muscles was faintly visible, and he wore black suit pants and leather shoes. The all-black outfit should have looked somber, but there was a pure silver chain brooch on the right chest of An Yi's shirt, which swayed with his movements.

"Okay, let's now select songs and group members for the first performance stage." Fang Canyang looked at the cue cards in his hand and said, "Our ninety people will be divided into ten groups. Over the next week, each group will adapt five songs. Two weeks later, we will begin the first performance stage. The top ten in the overall score of our theme song assessment will have the right to choose members and songs first."

"The top ten have the right to choose songs first."

"Oh my god, if they put ten of them together in a group, we're doomed."

"Probably not, they won't all end up in the same group."

“Okay, let’s reveal our five songs now.” An Yi took two steps to the side, revealing the large screen behind him. “The first song is Song Zhiyu’s ‘Soaring’.”

"The second song is Fang Canyang's rap single 'Kiss Me Tonight'."

"The third song is 'Originally', which I released two years ago."

"The fourth song is a traditional Chinese style single called 'It's Hard to Write About This Life'."

The fifth song is a classic old song called "Tell Me Everything".

The mention of these five song titles touched a nerve with Jin He. Her gaze lingered on the fifth song title, the string of English letters, for a long time before she slowly lowered her eyes.

"Brother Xiaohe, what do you want to choose?" For the first time, Wen Lian regretted losing to Fang Xiaoke by just one point during the assessment. He could only think of a solution himself: "Tell me secretly that when Fang Xiaoke invites you later, you should refuse him."

"Hey! I heard you!" Fang Xiaoke turned around and glared at Wen Lian. "What's wrong with you?"

Wen Lian coughed twice, looked straight ahead, and didn't say anything.

"Fang Xiaoke came in first place in the overall score of our last theme song assessment. You can choose your song first," An Yi said, holding the microphone.

Fang Xiaoke turned to look at Jin He, her face full of confidence: Wait for me!

I will definitely win over Jin He!

"I want to try singing Song Zhiyu's 'Soaring'!" Fang Xiaoke ran over excitedly and got the performance board from An Yi. "I'm so excited I love this song!"

"Oh, you only like Song Zhiyu's songs, and not my and An Yi's songs?" Fang Canyang teased him.

Upon hearing this, Fang Xiaoke immediately shook her head vigorously, "No, no, no, I like them all! I just wanted to try this style, that's why I chose this song. I really like both Teacher An Yi's and Teacher Fang's songs!"

The child was almost scared to tears.

An Yi couldn't help but laugh as he looked at him: "Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. This song is indeed very suitable for vocal arrangements. You can choose your team members now."

Without hesitation, Fang Xiaoke said, "I want Jin He!"
